How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!-Chapter 267: A Sword to Kill Observing Heaven (Requesting Monthly Votes)

Chapter 267: Chapter 267: A Sword to Kill Observing Heaven (Requesting Monthly Votes)

The willowy leaves emerge, almost formless.

In an instant, they reach Xiang Yue Ran, suddenly transforming into eighteen rapidly spinning Willow Leaf Cones!

Each Willow Leaf Cone carries a terrifying impact...

Xiang Yue Ran faces an instant onslaught from what seems like eighteen masters.

With a sudden horizontal sweep of his long sword, he invokes the strongest defense of Chunshui Swordsmanship: Chunshui Dam!

One sword blocks all eighteen Willow Leaves.

Boom!

The long sword resonates as if struck by eighteen waves simultaneously.

The front leaf punctuated Lin Xiaosu’s precision in key acupuncture points, while the eighteen waves showcase raw power without any flourish.

Xiang Yue Ran’s hair stands up high and his eyes widen!

Heaven witnesses, he did not retreat an inch!

Yet, everyone clearly saw that this move did not bring him any advantage.

And his initial claim: "If you can withstand one move from me, you have the right to come and go freely."

Lin Xiaosu withstood his move!

This move, however, was evenly matched!

The key point was that Xiang Yue Ran used a sword, whereas Lin Xiaosu merely used a tender willow branch he casually broke off.

"Bravo!" Ding Ruoshui cheered loudly, clapping her hands with reckless abandon.

In the long corridor, she was the only one clapping.

The nearby disciples glared at her with gloomy faces.

Below the corridor in Chunshui Lake, Saintess Li Bingxin fixed a cold stare on her face, watching for a long time.

Ding Ruoshui knew she was being watched but didn’t care!

This lady knows you have a grudge against me, for favoring my mother too much, making the genuine Saintess feel unnoticed.

But so what?

This lady is different from the disciples merely drifting through the sect. They worry about offending you and not being able to survive within the sect, so they endure despite their disdain.

But me? I’m a rich lady with money and power. If I can’t stay here, I can leave and still be carefree outside!

Do I need to endure you?

I will frustrate you to death!

Lin Xiaosu raised his gaze slightly, smiling: "..."

Lin Xiaosu’s voice came too late.

A voice suddenly echoed from above the lake: "The authentic secret technique of our sect: Dakongxuan?"

The voice started from a hundred meters away.

But as soon as it finished, it was already at their ears.

Lin Xiaosu swiftly turned around, squinting slightly.

Above the lake, three figures tread upon the waves.

Yes, treading on waves!

Their feet touched the lake’s surface as if walking on flat ground.

Twenty meters in three steps, three figures in purple robes stood upon the embankment.

All three had graying hair, clearly not young.

They emerged from the waves of the lake, with an immortal-like aura, standing before Lin Xiaosu with a magical sense of suppression.

All around instantly fell silent, as if even the lake waters quieted at that moment.

It seemed as if only these three people existed in the entire world.

They were like three towering mountains.

Exerting tremendous pressure.

"Xiaoyao Palace!"

"Elders of the Observing Heaven realm!"

"Three High Elders acting together, this..."

The corridor stirred with commotion.

Lin Xiaosu captured several key words.

Xiaoyao Palace!

Observing Heaven realm!

Elder!

His heart pounded, as if a mysterious thread had connected.

"Young man, the technique you used is Dakongxuan!" The elder in the center spoke slowly.

"Where did you steal our Dakongxuan technique? Speak!" The elder on the left demanded.

The elder on the right added: "Without our permission, those who steal our secret techniques will have their cultivation abolished!"

As soon as the voice finished, he stepped forward. freeweɓnovel-cøm

The corridor seemed to tremble slightly...

"I understand!" Lin Xiaosu said four words.

The elder took another step, even the lake seemed to vibrate.

Lin Xiaosu smiled faintly: "Da Ri Xiaoyao Temple, indeed there is a sect behind it, and it is you, Xiaoyao Palace, isn’t it?"

The elder took a third step, the willow branch in front of Lin Xiaosu seemed to stop swaying in the wind.

A strange pressure permeated the land.

Lin Xiaosu’s hair slowly floated upward, a subtle blood glow appeared between his brows. His voice remained calm: "I exterminated that damned Da Ri Xiaoyao Temple that brought disaster to Daxia, severing the demonic claw you extended into Daxia. So now you seek revenge on me! It’s understandable, but have you thought about a grave consequence?"

The elder took another step!

Only three steps remained between him and Lin Xiaosu.

Lin Xiaosu stated: "That grave consequence is: Xiaoyao Palace is heading towards its own destruction!"

Boom!

The elder took the final step!

He was within reach of Lin Xiaosu.

Lin Xiaosu’s hair flew wildly, not retreating a single step. On his forehead, a vivid Blood Tower began to glow.

This wasn’t something he intentionally activated.

This was triggered spontaneously under immense pressure.

He was at the Observing Earth realm, the elders were at Observing Heaven.

A realm apart meant worlds apart.

Yet, facing such heavy pressure, such terrifying force, within reach of life and death, Lin Xiaosu did not retreat even half a step!

Moreover, his words became increasingly forceful.

With a swish!

Someone intercepted him!

It was Ding Ruoshui!

Ding Ruoshui stood beside Lin Xiaosu and faced the Observing Heaven realm elder: "The elders of Xiaoyao Palace should know some manners! This place belongs to Chunshui Palace, not Xiaoyao Palace! What, you’re bullying people all the way to the gates of Chunshui Palace?"

Her presence carried little weight.

But her words bound everyone present.

This place indeed belongs to Chunshui Palace.

Kun Cang is a place regulated by laws.

Bullying people on someone else’s territory means offending not just the bullied, but also the local hosts.

"What Senior Sister Ding says is right!" Someone started to echo.

"No matter what, you Xiaoyao Palace must inform Chunshui Palace if you want to do anything here. Do you think you can act this way? This is an insult to Chunshui Palace!" A second person spoke!

The elder seemed hesitant.

The elder behind him bowed slightly to the little boat in the lake: "The young lady’s words do have some reason. Since the Saintess of Chunshui Palace is here, let her judge. This scoundrel plotted to murder the esteemed High Master of Da Ri Xiaoyao Temple and stole our secret technique Dakongxuan. We three elders abolish his cultivation, does this seem excessive?"

Li Bingxin said coldly: "There is a saying in the cultivation world ’those who possess the technique hold the authority.’ This lad has cultivated your sect’s secret technique, thus he is your sect’s disciple. How Xiaoyao Palace enforces its rules has nothing to do with Chunshui Palace."

Upon hearing this, Ding Ruoshui was furious: "Li Bingxin..."

"Audacious!" Xiang Yue Ran shouted: "Disrespecting the Saintess is grounds for expulsion!"

"Hahaha, it would be a notable story if our two sects handled a renegade together..." The middle elder laughed loudly, his voice resonating across the lake.

Suddenly, a chilly voice descended from the willow tree: "In the world of cultivation, it is indeed true that ’those who possess the technique hold the authority.’ This young man has mastered Dakongxuan, so he should be handled by Xiaoyao Palace. This makes for a fair argument... However... is Dakongxuan truly your Xiaoyao Palace’s technique?"

This voice was very cold.

This voice was also very abrupt.

Everyone looked up at once, simultaneously shocked.

Atop the willow tree, on a tender willow branch, stood a figure.

This figure was extremely thin, like a ghost floating in the wind.

She wore a green wooden mask, depicting a woman’s image, extremely bewitching and extremely enchanting, yet indescribably eerie.

At least twenty people were present.

No one knew when she appeared at the top of the willow tree.

However, her mastery in standing on tender willow branches like flat ground revealed that her cultivation level was at least Observing Heaven.

A master of Observing Heaven, which in major sects is often an elder, or even a top elder...

The middle elder spoke solemnly: "Who in Kun Cang does not know that Dakongxuan is our Xiaoyao Palace’s defining technique! Does the young lady dispute this?"

The woman on top of the willow tree sneered: "Dakongxuan’s secret technique originates from the third scroll of the Reincarnation Heart Sutra! It is the cultivation technique of Reincarnation Sect! Such a small Xiaoyao Palace dares to claim ownership?"

"Where is Reincarnation Sect in Kun Cang?" The elder retorted coldly.

"Who said Kun Cang doesn’t have Reincarnation Sect? I am from it!" The willow branch swayed, the woman above appeared like a ghost, landing before Lin Xiaosu with phantom-like agility. Her deep eyes locked onto the Ninth Elder: "According to the rule ’those who possess the technique hold the authority,’ all techniques of Xiaoyao Palace stem from my Reincarnation Sect. You should acknowledge me as superior, kneel, and call me Granny!"

A black line spread across the Ninth Elder’s face...

Xiaoyao Palace’s techniques indeed originated from Reincarnation Sect.

But the Reincarnation Sect was not of this territory...

"Impudent!" The Ninth Elder shouted angrily.

"You don’t believe that I am from Reincarnation Sect?" The mysterious woman said coldly.

"How will you prove your identity?" The Ninth Elder stepped up, powerful aura emanating.

"I can’t prove it myself! But you... can!" The mysterious woman said.

The Ninth Elder frowned deeply.

What does she mean?

"You personally go to the Reincarnation Road and investigate, you’ll understand!"

Swish!

A silver gleam flashed, and disappeared!

It was as if nothing had happened.

However, the Ninth Elder’s eyes suddenly widened...

A soft sound, splitting from the center of his brow, two halves of his bloody corpse neatly fell apart!

The mysterious woman held a white long sword, which she didn’t know when she had obtained.

She gazed at the blood dripping from the sword’s dark groove, seemingly mesmerized.

Whoosh!

More than ten disciples of Chunshui Palace retreated simultaneously.

The white boat in the lake rippled with waves.

Saintess Li Bingxin of Chunshui Palace’s expression changed.

The folding fan in Xiang Yue Ran’s hand stopped halfway.

The remaining two elders of Xiaoyao Palace stood up, their eyes filled with fierce light, yet showing some fear.

Among those present, only they had clearly seen the sword strike.

Precisely because they saw it, they truly feared.

This sword strike was exceedingly fast, exceedingly strange.

The Ninth Elder, being Observing Heaven, was slain instantly, without any ability to counter.

If targeted at them?

This crazed woman dared to openly massacre members of Xiaoyao Palace, once she did, it was genuinely perilous...

In the stifling air, the mysterious woman smiled lightly: "This elder must have already verified on the Reincarnation Road and confirmed my identity. It’s recognition of my lineage. What do you two other Xiaoyao Elders think? Do you want to verify as well?"
